COLLABORATIVE STREET FURNITURE
The Cass furniture students will be set a brief to design collaborative street furniture with local shops and local residents. This not only creates locally unique, yet coherent furniture pieces for the Roman road but it also celebrates collaborative community engagement and sense of ownership for the care of the high street.

Acamedic year 2015-2016 saw the achievement of prototypes with very little resource with different retailers and community groups to test its viability as a process of designing for the high street. We have already tested the methodology with a) Public organisation b) Shop c) Local resident group We would like to replicate this process with furniture design school at the CASS to produce a limited number of street furniture.
